“We’re all like best friends. At my wedding next year, I would invite every last one of these rookies to my wedding just because I understand they got my back,” tight end Eric Ebron, the club’s first-round selection, said Tuesday, according to Josh Katzenstein of the News.

“Nobody is on that selfish type of behavior where they just stay to themselves. Everybody talks to each other,” said fourth-round cornerback Nevin Lawson, according to the News. “It’s basically all we have, so everybody talks to each other, takes care of each other and I like this group because we really bond.”

In perhaps another positive sign, Lions senior director of player development Dr. Galen Duncan told the News that the drafted rookies “have been stellar from the beginning” with regard to taking care of business.

“They’ve approached everything we’ve done with vigor and have just been pros,” Duncan said, according to the News.

All the good news that ever comes from the Lions, comes in the offseason. Whoopi! The rookies like each other. Let’s call that a victory.

Good sign of things to come. Like sweeping the Bears again this year.

Ebron must like seeing his name in the paper. This of course was for good reasons, but the dude chirps to anyone with a microphone. If he has success in this league, the chirps aren’t going to get any quieter.
